well, the united states imports 1. million barrels of oil per day out of the persian gulf, 1.8 million barrels a day. this amendment would kill the efforts which the auto industry has accepted to back out two million barrels of oil a day by increasing the fuel economy standards between 2017 and 2025. this is one of the most anti- national security amendments we could have out here on the house of representatives' floor. combined with the dramatic increase in co-2 that would go into the atmosphere because co-2 would go up in the atmosphere if this amendment passed. how much is that? that is as much as the entire united states emitted in the year 2010 in our country. so if you look at these two issues in combination, you look at the fact that the auto workers endorsed the increase in fuel economy standards, the auto industry endorses the increase in fuel economy standards, it's not unlike this myth that's been created that it's anything other than the marketplace that is the problem that the coal industry is principally

the united states drew a clear red line and iran backed off. now, redlines can be drawn in different parts of iran's nuclear weapons program. but to be credible, a red line must be drawn first and foremost in one vital part of their efforts to iran's iraq -- to enrich uranium. let me explain why. basically, and the bomb consists of explosive material and a mechanism to ignite it. the simplest example is gunpowder and refuse. that is, you light the fuse and yousuf of the gunpowder. -- you set off the gun powder. in the case of iran's efforts to build a nuclear weapon, the nuclear enrichment is the gunpowder. the fuse is the detonator. producing the gunpowder is a lot more difficult than a detonator. for a country like iran, it takes many, many years to enrich uranium for a bomb. it requires thousands of centrifuges spending in tandem in very big industrial plants. those iranian plants are visible. and they are still vulnerable. in contrast, iran could produce a nuclear detonator, the fuse, and a lot less time, maybe under year. maybe only a few

the united states is also currently a threat. the immediate concern is that, under the current law, there would be a dramatic tightening equal to about 40% of gdp which is commonly referred to as the fiscal cliff. and that is good. the problem though is that it entails a contraction of 2% of gdp. and that is my good at all, especially if you consider that the forecast for growth of the united states is pretty much in the range of 2%. so that would erase any growth in the united states, the consequence of not dealing with the fiscal cliff and not dealing with the debt ceiling, which are both looming threats on the very short-term horizon. and it does not just a threat for the united states of america. it is a threat for the global economy given the size of the u.s. economy and its linkages with many other countries around the globe. so we all hope that, despite political challenges, which anywhere in the world entail a degree of uncertainty and unpredictability, there will soon be enough political courage and no political gains in
